Hi
folks. I am Alan Watt and this is Cutting Through The Matrix on
January the 10th 2012. For newcomers, you should always make
use of cuttingthroughthematrix.com
archives. Thereís almost 1,000 audios for free download where hopefully
youíll get the picture of the system youíre born into, the real one above the
media spin, above political spin. Youíll find out who, and the names and
organizations and individuals, well over 100 years, who have been putting
together this system of what they call globalism. Itís actually a fixed
society, a more scientifically organized society, a society where rather than
have democracy they can get their big projects done without any hubble from the
public. And thatís really what itís about. Itís a scientifically
driven society, an ordered society, which will make it much easier for those at
the top to bring us down into what they call a workable population size
and to manage it better and more efficiently for themselves, those at the top,
the elite, the natural Darwinists, the ones who believe thatís why theyíre
there already: very, very rich, the best schools, best marriages, from
wealthy parents and so on. So itís a very simple plan. Power never
really changes its structure; it simply uses science now to get this particular
structure into being much more quickly. And I mean all sciences,
especially the science of the mind; itís more important than anything
else.

So
help yourself to those audios. Remember, all the sites listed have
transcripts for print up as well in English and if you want transcripts in
other languages go into alanwattsentientsentinel.eu
and youíll find a bunch to choose from there. Also
remember, you can buy the books and disks I have at cuttingthroughthematrix.com
and that keeps me just ticking over. Iím not into an
empire-building business here. Iím trying to just get by. And I
donít bring on advertisers as guests and I donít have shares in all the
different companies that sell things to you. So
if you buy the books and disks I might just tick on a little bit longer.
Itís up to you. [Order and donation options listed above.] And
believe you me, donations are awfully welcome. Sometimes people donít
want to buy so much and theyíll send a few bucks your way once in a while, when
itís very necessary.

Now,
what I do, as I say, I chronicle the events and give you the histories that led
up to where we are today, including generations of brainwashing, including the
planned wars they always have in every generation, to bring in the global
society. Remember, you can get more
done in 5 years of warfare Ė from a government level, thatís taking over
all different departments, functions and so on under martial law Ė than you can in 50 years of peace and
propaganda; that was Carroll Quigley that said that. So wars have
many different functions. It changes the societies and the cultures on
both opponents actually as well. Itís a very important part of the war
creation business. And you can see how everyoneís given up their rights,
you know, from day one basically. Most folk give up their rights for the
old, old, the most ancient story in the book... Give up your rights and weíll give you security. And
of course without any rights you have no security. You know.

The
ancient Romans knew that because they were always turning the army out on them,
and weíre doing the same today of course too. The problem is today with
the planned wars that were published in the 90s with all the countries that
were to be taken out, under the New American Century which is a continuation
into the Obama regime, youíll find out that America especially, and Canada too
to an extent and Britain and other countries, are going to be the objects of hatred
for the next 30 years with dispossessed peoples, the ones that owned a bit of
land, maybe a hut or two, and theyíre not too happy to have it all blown up and
stolen, and the ground underneath it too by the big corporations. So that
means that weíre going to live under perpetual so-called anti-terrorism bills
and laws and regulations, and deeper and deeper and deeper intrusion into our
lives. ....IF you want to put up with it. Thatís really the
bottom line isnít it? Back with more after this break.

Hi
folks, Iím back Cutting Through The Matrix and Iíve mentioned so much of this
big agenda because Iíve read from the books, sometimes on the air, from big
players who took part in the world think tanks. Theyíre not just think tanks;
they donít sit around and think. They come up with plans of course and
then they find ways to implement the plans on an unsuspecting public.
After all, if you want to depopulate you donít say, well please step forward
for volunteers. It doesnít happen like that. So they just go
ahead and do it; thatís how government really works.

Government
really hasnít changed since the medieval times or even before. It really
hasnít. Francis Bacon said the same thing too, to King James. He
says, itís best that the public never really
know the true machinations of government... meaning the true direction,
the true purpose, etc, etc, etc. Nothing has changed. In fact thereís
more public relations, which is propaganda Ė thatís what the public relations
field is; they used to call it just plain propaganda. Thereís more
propaganda experts working for government than youíd ever imagine.
Nothing is given out to the public unless it goes through the propaganda filter
channels where they soften things and twist things and make it sound, oh,
innocuous, and you know, quite safe.

And
over the years Iíve mentioned too, about the depopulation agenda, which has
been going on steadily since the 1950s when they started off, really, with the
mass inoculations and then watching the cancers escalate like crazy, all kinds
of new cancers they never had before. And today itís all quite normal
because we adapt so quickly; weíre normalized into anything at all. And
we see that happening even with the transgenderism and all the rest of this
kind of stuff as we go into transhumanism. Step by step by step youíre
constantly prepared for the next step and the next step and you adapt and adapt
and adapt.

At
the same time they want to bring down the population, as I say, through your
food, your water, and the needle
as Bertrand Russell said. A big, big player, Bertrand Russell. And
this article here is from 2002. Iíve read later articles too, with even
later exposťs, because government filters out the truth, maybe 20-30 years,
sometimes even 50 years, and thereís even a 100-year limit on some things they
donít want the public to know about. By the time itís released to the
public most have died off; theyíve been experimented on and no one cares.
Young folk donít really care about anything that happened in the past:
Granddadís ancient history; itís like the Romans to them; thatís how they
categorize things. This article here is from 2002 and it says...

The Ministry of
Defence turned large parts of the country into a giant laboratory to conduct a
series of secret germ warfare tests on the public. (Alan: Now,
for the hard of thinking, itís good to always go back a little bit. Ones
who talk in bits and bytes and text each other bits and bytes of information,
you know, theyíre the hard of thinking. So you have to say things
sometimes twice or three times to them to get their attention.) . . .
a series of secret germ warfare tests on the public. (A: Now the
Ministry of Defence youíd think is there to protect the public. Itís so
Orwellian, such a world that we live in, isnít it?)

A government report
just released provides for the first time a comprehensive official history of
Britain's biological weapons trials between 1940 and 1979. (A:
And mind you, this is what the governmentís giving out. Some of this
stuff canít be released for another 40-50 years. Sometimes at the end of
that they can re-stamp it for another 40-50 years.)

Many of these tests
involved releasing potentially dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms over
vast swaths of the population without the public being told. (A:
Does that ring a bell with all the chemtrails going on right now?)

While details of
some secret trials have emerged in recent years, the 60-page report reveals new
information about more than 100 covert experiments. (A: Thatís a
lot of scientists, these wonderful psychopaths, the new priesthood in their
white coats, getting big paychecks from your tax money to find ways to kill you
and sicken you and study you. And theyíre quite calm about it as you all
get sick. And they get all the medical reports coming in from hospitals and
they go hmm, isnít that interesting, you
know, the trachea, itís totally closed, totally closed up here. Isnít
that interesting Bertie? And thatís how they talk to each
other. Weíre not people, you see. Weíre just creatures. Weíre
just lab rats.)

The report reveals
that military personnel were briefed to tell any 'inquisitive inquirer' the
trials were part of research projects into weather and air pollution.
(A: Does that also ring a bell? [Alan laughing.])

The tests, carried
out by government scientists at Porton Down, were designed to help the MoD (A:
Ministry of Defence.) assess Britain's vulnerability if the Russians were
to have released clouds of deadly germs over the country. (A:
And so what they did, you see, is they doused the people with deadly germs over
the country, just to see what the RUSSIANS would do, how would it be if the
Russians did it with their version of it, you see.)

In most cases, the
trials did not use biological weapons but alternatives which scientists believed
would mimic germ warfare and which the MoD claimed were harmless. But families
in certain areas of the country who have children with birth defects are
demanding a public inquiry. (A: Theyíre still waiting, by the
way. They used all kinds of things, even radioactive substances too, over
vast, vast areas of especially England, southern England, or the eastern part
of England.)

One chapter of the
report, 'The Fluorescent Particle Trials', reveals how between 1955 and 1963
planes flew from north-east England to the tip of Cornwall along the south and
west coasts, dropping huge amounts of zinc cadmium sulphide (A: Thatís
a highly carcinogenic substance.) on the population. The chemical drifted
miles inland, its fluorescence allowing the spread to be monitored. In another
trial using zinc cadmium sulphide, a generator was towed along a road near
Frome in Somerset where it spewed the chemical for an hour. (A:
But that was per day, by the way. We only found out because it was an
American who went over from the American forces to work with them, who came
back to America and blew the whistle; he didnít want it to be done in the US.)

While the Government
has insisted the chemical is safe, cadmium is recognised as a cause of lung
cancer and during the Second World War was considered by the Allies as a
chemical weapon. (A: Why is that? Itís because it is a
chemical weapon.)

In another chapter,
'Large Area Coverage Trials', the MoD describes how between 1961 and 1968 more
than a million people along the south coast of England, from Torquay to the New
Forest, were exposed to bacteria including e.coli (A: Thatís a pretty
deadly thing too, isnít it?) and bacillus globigii, which mimics anthrax.
These releases came from a military ship, the Icewhale, anchored off the Dorset
coast, which sprayed the micro-organisms in a five to 10-mile radius. (A:
It also sprayed, again, the cadmium as well Ė I should say that too.)

The report also
reveals details of the DICE trials in south Dorset between 1971 and 1975. These
involved US and UK military scientists spraying into the air massive
quantities of serratia marcescens bacteria, with an anthrax simulant and
phenol.

Similar bacteria
were released in 'The Sabotage Trials' (A: Thatís what they called
them.) between 1952 and 1964. These were tests to determine the
vulnerability of large government buildings and public transport to attack. In
1956 bacteria were released on the London Underground at lunchtime along the
Northern Line between Colliers Wood and Tooting Broadway. The results show that
the organism dispersed about 10 miles. Similar tests were conducted in tunnels
running under government buildings in Whitehall.

Experiments
conducted between 1964 and 1973 involved attaching germs to the threads of
spiders' webs in boxes to test how the germs would survive in different
environments. These tests were carried out in a dozen locations across the
country, including London's West End, Southampton and Swindon. The report also
gives details of more than a dozen smaller field trials between 1968 and 1977.

In recent years, the
MoD has commissioned two scientists to review the safety of these tests. (A:
In other words, they hire their own scientists and tell them what to do;
theyíre a military bunch, you see.) Both reported that there was no
risk to public health, although one suggested the elderly or people suffering
from breathing illnesses may have been seriously harmed if they inhaled
sufficient quantities of micro-organisms.

However, some
families in areas which bore the brunt of the secret tests are convinced the
experiments have led to their children suffering birth defects, physical
handicaps and learning difficulties. (A: So anyway, they were
demanding an official inquiry, but theyíll never get it. And it goes on and on
and on.)

As
I say, itís only one of many of their so-called press releases under the
Official Secrets Act. It also means they donít have to give you an awful
lot of the worse ones which they also did as well. They were trying, by
the way, spraying zinc cadmium and other metallic particles back in the 1950s
in Britain, and Scotland as well, up in Scotland, because I saw that myself in
the 60s. Anyway it says here that they can basically do what they
want. Itís all for your good,
you see; you canít tell the public because, well, then youíd know and you
wouldnít be too happy about being, well, poisoned and given all these strange
bacteria and viruses, etc. With a National Health Service itís great
because you can get all the real-time data flooding through nowadays, through
computers, right to one computer, right in Ottawa. They actually put one
in, so they can get live time, you know, how many folk are going into doctorsí
offices or clinics with different problems, breathing difficulties, etc.
Itís really great if youíre up there at the top these days.

Now,
I mentioned too, about psychopathy and how psychopaths gravitate towards
power. They love power. They love cash. And they love to be
up there in the limelight as well.

Ex-cons vie for $100,000 seed cash

thechronicleherald.ca / January 7, 2012 / CASSANDRA
SZKLARSKI

TORONTO ó If youíre
a successful criminal (A: Here you are; itís a study that was done.),
chances are you have what it takes to be a successful businessman, says
self-made multimillionaire and TV personality Kevin OíLeary.

Thatís the premise
behind OíLearyís new CBC-TV reality series Redemption Inc., which puts 10
ex-convicts through a series of weekly entrepreneurial challenges to see who
most deserves a $100,000 investment in their dream business.

"Every criminal
is a businessman, think about it," says OíLeary, best known as a brash
judge on CBC-TVís Dragonsí Den and the outspoken co-host of CBC News Networkís
The Lang and OíLeary Exchange.

"If youíre a very
successful drug dealer youíre a logistics expert, youíre great in sales, youíre
great in marketing, youíre great at inventory control. And now you can apply
those talents to something thatís legal as opposed to illegal, thatís the whole
idea of the show."

The 10 ex-cons in
Redemption Inc. include a hothead former cocaine trafficker who dreams of
starting up a truffle farm, a former thief with hopes of starting his own
tattoo shop, and a former crack dealer who wants her own snow removal
business. (A: I guess the stuff is much the same color, eh?)

Each episode puts
their business acumen to the test by dropping them into real-world scenarios to
show off their sales, marketing and teamwork skills.

At the end of nine
weeks, a single candidate deemed most likely to succeed gets $100,000 to start
a business. (A: Not bad, eh? Crime pays, you see. Back
with more after this break.)

Hi
folks. Iím back Cutting Through The Matrix. Iíll also put up
tonight at cuttingthroughthematrix.com Ė I put all these links up, mind you Ė
but Iíll also put up one to do with the ďSecret Presidential Chemtrail Budget
Uncovered Ė Congress Exceeds Billions To Spray Populace Like RoachesĒ.
Iíll put that up there as well, for those who care to have a look at it.

And
I mentioned a few days ago too, about Canada, how itís going to be so-called
deregulated Ė itís a great con, this deregulation stuff. Because the same
big boys at the top always hold the majority; itís their business, they
simply sublet it out to smaller carriers.

A dystopian future for Canadaís Internet

www2.macleans.ca / Peter Nowak / January 5, 2012

On Tuesday,
independent Canadian ISP Teksavvy announced its new service plans, effectively
dropping the other shoe in the long-running usage-based internet billing
debate. (A: They want to have you billed by use
basically.) While on the surface there are some things to like, at
the core the new plansĖand regulatory system theyíre based onĖpaint a
disturbing picture of the future of Canadaís Internet.

The CRTC set things
in motion in November with its government-ordered revisit of the issue and came
up with something called capacity-based billing (A: Itís sort of like
Ďquantitative easingí you know, [Alan chuckles]Ö they come up with these
names.), a sort of diet UBB. In essence, instead of large network owners
charging indie ISPs for every byte their customers download, the new system
requires the smaller companies to buy chunks of capacity based on how much they
think theyíre going to need on a monthly basis. (A: You can
imagine the catastrophe thatíll cause, because itíll never be the same.)

As Jesse Brown noted
on this site earlier this week, while some commentators praised the decision,
othersĖincluding TeksavvyĖsaid the regulator screwed things up again. While the
system itself was okay, the fees that a few big network owners are allowed to
charge through it were way too high, the company said, which will inevitably
result in price increases for customers. (A: Well, of course, that
always happens.)

All eyes have since
been on Teksavvy, one of the largest and most vocal of the UBB opponents, to
see what it would do. In the end, the companyís new plans and the accompanying
explanation are something of a mixed bag. On the one hand, most existing plans
are going up by $3 to $4, which fits the predictions by some observers that the
CRTCís ruling would push up rates by 10 to 15 per cent. The issue, as Teksavvy
puts it, is that while its fixed costs actually went down somewhat thanks to
the decision, the variable ones can potentially go up significantly. The
companyís pricing notice reads: . . .

So
Iíll put this one up as well for you; they go on and on and on about it. But
the fact is, weíre certainly going to go up and up and up and up and up.
And they give you other countries where theyíve already tried it, Australia and
New Zealand, etc. Thatís how they do things now: well
so-and-soís doing that, you know, theyíre cutting heads off in ChinaÖ we should
do the same thing here. Thatís how they really justify things today
isnít it? Ösomeone else is doing it.† So
Iíll put this one up for you to have a wee gander at, as I say.

And
another one too is to do with the Generation Gimmie. You see, youíve had
different generations, X, Y and all the rest of it. Now itís generation
gimmie. Itís quite a good little documentary; itís a video. Itís
about questions theyíre asked, to students basically, what they think of
America, how they see America and how theyíve been taught basically Marxism in
the school system. And they think that the government is there to give
them everything that they want, including paying their way through universities
and so on. So you should have a little look at this. Itís quite an
interesting thing to see the different studies that are being done on how,
again, every generation grows up with its new indoctrination, and they have a
different America, and they see a different America, and they will bring in
a different America. Theyíll bring in the America that those who
brainwashed them want, you see. Every generation does.

Refuse to Eat These Foods Ė

They Could Destroy Your Reproductive Organs

articles.mercola.com / Dr. Mercola | January 10 2012

(A: Now,
thereís a big thing about making us all sterile. Itís a big, real
mandate, folks, and thereís big articles up there, from the big boys
themselves, talking about ways to do it. And theyíve actually been doing
it of course because weíre almost sterile now in the West. This article
saysÖ)

Avoid genetically
engineered (GE) corn and soy, which have already been shown to reduce fertility
in animal.

Private firm plans
release of genetically modified (GM) mosquitoes into the environment of the
Florida Keys, sometime this month.

In an effort to
reduce the mosquito population, the mosquitoes are genetically modified with a
gene designed to kill them unless given an antibiotic known as tetracycline.
Offspring of the GM mosquitoes will thus die before reaching adulthood.

Genetic engineering
(GE) of both plants and animals is in full swing. As a result, virtually ALL
processed foods and beverages contain at least one genetically engineered
ingredient. Animal-based foods are also affected, such as meat and eggs, as
conventionally-raised livestock are typically fed GE feed (A: Thatís
genetically engineered stuff with all different kind of genes and stuff added
to it.); the toxins of which tend to bioaccumulate in the animal. (A:
And plus itís full of toxins from the sprays they use to raise the feed too.)

What will happen
when we increasingly begin to replace natural-born life forms with genetically
engineered versions? Based on the best evidence available, that the end result
is bound to be less than ideal for human survival. (A: Thatís
the point of it all.)

Animal studies have
linked GE crops to a wide variety of health problems, from abnormal immune
responses and organ disruptions to reproductive problems in both males and
females. Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, used in large doses on
GE RoundupReady crops, has also been linked to fertility problems in male and
female rats, along with a 35 percent drop in testosterone levels at otherwise
non-toxic glyphosate levels. (A: None of this is a coincidence
because these chemicals really are old chemicals; they knew what it did a long,
long time ago. But it fits in with the big agenda, eh? You can be sterile
like a eunuch but you can still eat all your fatty stuff. Back with more
after this break.)

Hi
folks, Iím Alan Watt, weíre back Cutting Through The Matrix, reading an article
about the wonderful experiments theyíre doing with the GM food and mosquitoes,
etc. And it says hereÖ

The first GM
mosquito release took place in the Cayman Islands in 2009 (A: I think Bill
Gates had something to do with that.), and the second in Malaysia in 2010.

Now, residents of
the Florida Keys, like those of the Cayman Islands and Malaysia, will be
subjected to these genetically manipulated insects, without having any say
in the matter. (A: Thatís wonderful. You see, weíre
post democratic as I keep telling you.)

Natural Society
reports:

"The mosquitoes
are genetically modified with a gene designed to kill them unless given an
antibiotic known as tetracycline. (A: How many folk can they bite in
the meantime though? Well, weíll wait and see; itís another experiment
isnít it?)

Offspring of the GM
mosquitoes will receive this same lethal gene which will kill the offspring
before it can ever reach adulthood.

As more genetically
modified mosquitoes mate with wild mosquitoes, the idea is that more and more
offspring will be produced with the lethal gene, thereby reducing the mosquito
population.

Of course the risks
these mosquitoes post ... are highly unknown ...

With the release of
genetically modified insects could come the downfall of both local and global
ecosystems ..." (A: Never mind the fact that these things
can start mutating in the wild as well, and goodness knows where theyíll end
up.)

While the biotech
industry remains steadfast in their official stance that genetically engineered
foods and animals are safe (A: Even though thereís not a single study come
back that actually says any of this stuff is safe. Cancer of the stomach
is very common with the rubbish weíre eating today.) and provide valuable
benefits, reality is telling us otherwiseÖ

Genetic Engineering
of Plants and Animals is in Full Swing

Unfortunately, many
people are still completely in the dark about the genetic engineering taking
place, both in plants and animals.

I've written
numerous articles about the health dangers of genetically engineered (GE)
foods, and while I've not covered the issue of genetically modified animals to
any great extent, this too is taking place. For example, sheep that are 15
percent human have already been developed in an effort to create spare parts
for organ transplants, and goats have been engineered to deliver spider silk in
their milk.

Cows have also been
genetically engineered to create something more akin to human breast milk, in
an effort to make cowís milk more nutritious...The list goes on, but you
probably get the gist.

While the rationale behind
all of these experiments appears altruistic (A: Well not in business
it ainít.), the fact of the matter is that we're playing with and
artificially altering carefully balanced systems. And when we do so, unexpected
ramifications are virtually guaranteed to occur, because we simply do not
understand all there is to know as of yetÖ (A: And of course,
they do know what itís causing. As I say, even the genetically engineered
potatoes, for goodness sake, were killing mice and rats, giving them cancers of
the stomach. Well you know, weíre all mammals you know. What do you
think happens to us as well? So I would say that the depopulation agenda
is in full swing.)

And
itís amazing, this is so amazing too, as I say, you understand that every
profession has to be ticketed or licensed by the government. And what
that does basically is keep everybody in line. If youíre a doctor youíve
got to keep your mouth shut on certain things that you might happen to see or
notice as time goes on in the general population. And to do with, for
instance, all childhood inoculations; every single doctor knows whatís
happening. They all darn well know, every single one of them knows
because they see the effects of the mothers coming back with the child, after
theyíve had their early mumps/rubella/measles injections, and they see the
amount of autism thatís happened as well. They know. They darn well know. Itís the same with all
these scientists involved in this stuff as well; they know what itís doing to
the human population, and itís not happening by accident. Because
remember Tony Blair? When Tony Blair was in Britain, he was mandating
that all Britain must accept the modified crops and so on from Monsanto,
but in the same breath he said that certain places will be exempt including
their own parliamentary, for all the politicians, restaurant, he said; they
will still be eating organic food. Well why would he make such an exception? Ö
if this stuff is so darn safe? eh? Itís common sense you know, just
common sense isnít it?

One
more article, Greek parents nowadays are too poor to care for their children
and theyíre turning them into the church in droves because of the so-called
austerity that weíve all to go under shortly. And they canít afford to
have their children anymore; lots of them have lost their houses and theyíre
homeless. Iíll put this link up as well. And itís just a portent of

Academics who are trying to redefine pedophilia as

Ďintergenerational intimacyí

lifesitenews.com / Anne Hendershott / Jan 04,
2012

(PublicDiscourse.com)
- The anger and disgust that most of us experienced when we learned of the
allegations of sexual abuse of boys in the sports programs at Penn State and
Syracuse University suggest that our cultural norms about the sexual abuse of
minors are intact. Yet it was only a decade ago that a parallel movement had
begun on some college campuses to redefine pedophilia as the more innocuous
ďintergenerational sexual intimacy.Ē (A: Thatís the way they
prefer you to call it, you see. Iíll put that link up as well. Itís
quite a lengthy article, and itís very, very true indeed. These
organizations are well funded by the big foundations that fund just about
everything else that destroys society, by intention of course. Itís not
by accident whatsoever this is all happening. Theyíre always INCREDIBLY
well funded, always, itís astonishing.)

Now,
Iíll go to the callers now because there are some folk waiting from long
distance. Thereís Darrin from Ireland, are you there Darrin?

Darrin: Hello Alan.

Alan: Hello.

Darrin: How are you?

Alan: Not bad at all, yeah.

Darrin: A book Iíd like to recommend to all your
listeners is a book called The Shallows: how the internet is changing the way
we think, read and remember, by Nicholas Carr. And itís a cheap
book. Itís an amazing read. And it goes through the history of
reading and the internet and what itís doing to our little fragile minds.
Iíll read a quick page from 108 in the book, and this is from an article in
2005 by the Annual Review of Sociology.

...the recent
changes in our reading habits suggest that the Ďera of mass [book] readingí was
a brief Ďanomalyí in our intellectual history. We are now seeing such
reading return to its former social base: a self-perpetuating minority that we
shall call the reading class.

And
Iíll read another one; itís full of all quotes from maybe, about 100 years
now. And hereís a quote from 1889 in the Harper article by Edward Bellamy,
what the futureís all about. And in the article he says...

...people would come
to read "with the eyes shut." They would carry around a tiny audio
player, called an "indispensable," which would contain all their
books, newspapers, and magazines. Mothers, wrote Bellamy, would no longer have
"to make themselves hoarse telling the children stories on rainy days to
keep them out of mischief." The kids would all have their own
indispensables.

And
itís kind of funny, 100 years down the line, nearly everyone has an iPod or an
MP3 keeping them quiet.† And Iíll read
something else as well. This is from page 116 of the same book.

When we go online,
we enter an environment that promotes cursory reading, hurried and distracted
thinking, and superficial learning. Itís possible to think deeply while surfing
the Net, just as itís possible to think shallowly while reading a book, but
thatís not the type of thinking the technology encourages and rewards.
One thing is very clear. If, knowing what we know today about the brainís
plasticity, you were to set out to invent a medium that would rewire our mental
circuits as quickly and thoroughly as possible, you would probably end up
designing something that looks and works a lot like the Internet.

And
itís just amazing to really see that the thing that most people hold in their
hand now has been planned for 100, maybe now, even 200 years, at the most.

Alan: HG Wells also talked about Ďthe world brainí
which would be a supercomputer, which would have all data on everything that
people could be able to tap into. And he wrote that, again, in the early
1900s. So they knew where they were going with all of this. Of
course itís easy to do it. All you do is make sure all the funding for
science is directed at the science that you want to be brought in. Itís
that easy. You donít give out grants and say, do what you want and
find things out. You say, we want you to study on this particular
path and come up with x, y, z, you know. And thatís how you make sure
that you can actually do it. Whatever you want will eventually be done
with unlimited financing.

Darrin: Iíll read one last quote from this
book. Itís from Franklin Rooseveltís science advisor during World War
II. And he writes, this is what he proposed...

The world is arising
in an age of cheap complex devices of great reliability; and something is bound
to come of it. Mr Bush proposed that is would be useful not only to
scientists but to anyone implying logical processes of thought and he called
this machine a Ďmemexí. Incorporated into a desk the memex, wrote Bush,
is a device in which an individual stores a compressed form of all his books,
records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be
consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility. On top of the desk are
translucent screens on which are projected images of the stored materials, as
well as a keyboard, a set of buttons and levers to navigate the data
base. The essential feature of the machine is the use of associative
indexing to link different pieces of information. Any item may be caused
at will to be selected immediately and automatically. The processes of
two things together which emphasize, which is a very important thing.
With the memex Bush anticipated both the personal computer and the hyper media
system of the world wide web.

And
I hope people realize that the internet might be full of amazing facts but itís
not promoting deep thought. Itís actually doing the opposite.
Youíre outsourcing... youíre outsourcing memory and youíre not making, you
canít make the connections while using the internet. You have to have the
space and the time to consolidate memories that go in, and you can only do that
with the likes of books, in detail.

Alan: Most folk have found...

Darrin: You canít do that with fast-paced reading.

Alan: They have done many studies and they find
that people who read eBooks, from the computer, canít retain very much of it at
all; but if they print it up itís a completely different story, they can actually
retain a good deal of it. So itís bits and bytes they retain if they simply
read off the screen. And itís designed that way too with all the
distractions and so on. So itís a weapon, itís a weapon for those who
want to rule the minds of the masses. Itís not too difficult to do.
It was designed, even with all its pornography, long before they gave it to the
general public. So itís a weapon. They could never bring in, by the
way, the new world order and total observation of every citizen without the
computer. Couldnít be done. So this was a must-be even during World
War II and prior to that, to bring in something that would connect us all, that
could spy on every single one of us. It was essential for that, for world
government in a totalitarian system. Thanks for calling. And youíre
quite right. And thereís Daniel hanginí on from the UK there as
well. Are you there Daniel?

Daniel: Itís funny what your previous caller was
saying, because I notice my memoryís terrible now after using the internet so
much.† I believe itís because you canít
focus on anything. You click, click, click and you look at something else
and something else. And Iím sure thatís why on television, incidentally,
they flash lots of images.† And you
notice, they never actually hold an image for more than half a second.

Alan: Thatís right.

Daniel: They always flash on everything and you
canít focus on any one thing. I mean, anyway Iíve seen it in places Iíve
gone.† But what I wanted to ask was, I
was looking at Russia Today, and noticed all this massive buildup, you know,
with Iran. Theyíve got these, building hospitals in Georgia as well;
Americans building hospitals in Georgia, and put all these thousands of troops
around, ready to go into Iran, but they say itís a training exercise. But
then they always say that donít they?

Alan: They always do.

Daniel: I mean, they seem to be kind of lucky,
because every time they have a training exercise itís a reason to start up a
war, isnít it?

Alan: Sure, sure it is.

Daniel: You remember once I phoned up and we were
talking about cancer?† James
Goldsmith. Well, I wonder if you might let me read a very short bit out
of Russia Today about Chavez?

Alan: Yeah, go ahead; I heard the story.

Daniel: Well it says...

Chavez discusses America's hottest export: cancer

Rt.com/ 29 December, 2011

America has troops
on the ready outside North Korea, has spy drones stationed to enter Iran and
has God knows how many other secrets up its sleeves. What else could the US be
up to? If you ask Hugo Chavez, itís cancer.

The creation and
spreading of cancer over Latin American leaders.

Thatís what
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said on Wednesday this week while addressing
troops at a military base, a speech that was televised across the country.
Speaking only a day after Argentina President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner
was diagnosed with the disease, Chavez suggested ó and he stressed, he only
suggested ó that the toll of neighboring leaders diagnose with cancer seems
almost too odd to be true. Chavez recently had a tumor removed from his pelvis
and Fernandez and he join a list of Latin American figurehead with the disease
that also includes Paraguay's Fernando Lugo, Brazil's Dilma Rousseff and former
Brazilian leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. (Caller: And the
quote says...)

ďItís a bit
difficult to explain this, to reason it, including using the law of
probabilities,Ē said Chavez, who called the coincidence ďvery, very,
very strange.Ē

"It would
not be strange if they had developed the technology to induce cancer and nobody
knew about it until now Ö I don't know. I'm just reflecting," said
Chavez.

Speaking to the
troops, the leftist leader and longtime opponent of American policy said that
another Latin American leader, Fidel Castro, warned him years earlier of what
the US is capable of. "Fidel always told me, 'Chavez take care. These
people have developed technology. You are very careless. Take care what you
eat, what they give you to eat Ö a little needle and they inject you with I
don't know what,'" insisted Chavez.

And
thatís essentially it. But I mean, you already mentioned that the other,
when you were saying, they can put a little bit of uranium on your car
seat.† And now youíve got this world
leader whoís in opposition to the US, and all these South American leaders have
got cancer.

Alan: Itís a whole field in itself, and itís part
of the tools of the hitman basically. Theyíve got actually a form of air
pistols that can fire very high blasts of very narrow beams of air basically,
maybe a half inch wide or even smaller, and take particles of uranium in,
through insufflation; thereís no mark on the skin; itíll go right through your
skin. Thatís old stuff from the 60s the CIA were using. So theyíre
way ahead of that now. And plus too, with all the other technological
weapons that theyíve got, through electronics they can target people in line of
sight, even from a cell phone tower Ė that came out from Finland; it was
patented Ė and basically, eventually, beaming you long enough youíll get cancer
too. Thanks for calling; youíre quite right. Back after this.

Hi
folks, weíre back Cutting Through The Matrix and weíll go to Aaron from Nevada
if heís there.

Aaron: Hi Alan. Hey, I just got to chime in;
it wasnít really what I wanted to talk about, but I have to say this
first.† I want to remind those people
from the United Queendom that they are hand-in-glove with everything
America is doing. So the idea of being like a David I. and blaming
Americans or American government for everything, is false. Iím not going
for it, and I just want to remind them that Karl Marx is buried in London and
he was exiled there and did most of his important work there in Jolly Old
England.

Alan: Heís actually buried, I think, in Hyde Park,
and right opposite him is Mr Spencer, of Marx and Spencer. So youíve got
Marx and Spencer right opposite each other. [Alan laughing.]

Aaron: [Caller laughing.] Yeah, any miscreant is
welcome in London, to come up with, you know, dismantling ideas and concepts
for the world to latch onto over time.†
So, just to be clear on that. But anyways, I was studying a couple
things. About in the 20s, in Germany, this school developed as a method,
based on Marxism, and it was this thing called Ďcritical thinkingí.† Basically, they attack a societyís norms and
precepts, and just by endless criticizing and breaking everything down.

Alan: That was the Frankfurt School. The
Frankfurt School did that.

Aaron: Bingo. And they got chased out of
Germany when Hitler rose to power. So where did they go? Chicago
and New York.

Alan: Thatís right. And they were funded by
the government from then on, by the way.

Aaron: Okay, and so thereís that. I was like
wow; okay, that told me a lot. And that follows along your line of
thinking, you know, and everything. The other thing, I was listening to
this other radio show; I donít usually listen to it. Thereís like a guy
with pointy boots and this bullhorn or something; this guy pounds the table all
the time. Anyways, he had a caller who lived in San Francisco and went
downtown and conducted his own little survey, which I thought was
brilliant. I was like, thatís a good idea.† And he asked everybody in the United Nations
plaza, like you know, a broad cross-section of people walking around and
stuff. He said, what do you think about world government? Are
you for world government Ė you know, the idea, concept or whatever Ė or
against it? And the numbers were shocking. He said, specifically,
that every single Hispanic or Latino, however you want to phrase it, that he
asked this question of, was FOR world government.† And to me that was really an ominous finding. So I
want to do my own poll too and see. You know, this is really an uphill
battle if you have huge elements of the society that think world government is
a great idea.

Alan: Absolutely. And thatís why even in
Britain and elsewhere too, it was generally the so-called Labour or Liberal
governments that brought them in, on the promise that theyíd get the vote from
them too.† That was part of the
indoctrination as well, that weíre all internationalists, etc, etc, and that
would eventually erode the concept of being patriotic to a national government,
and we must be international. So youíre quite right, yeah.

Aaron: Thank you very much.

Alan: Thatís taught in school now too
though. Itís taught in school and university, so itís well on its
way. Again, intergenerationally, just bump it up a bit and up a bit
more. The average Canadian coming out of school now, if you ask them
about communism, all they know is it was a wonderful experiment where people
tried to take charge of their own lives and themselves and work communally
together for the greater good. Thatís all they know. They know
nothing about the mass slaughters, the millions upon millions of slaughters and
executions carried out by it either. And thatís the sadness. And
those who control the reins of power control the reins of the educational system.

From
Hamish and myself from Ontario, Canada, itís good night and may your God or
your Gods GO with you. And sorry, Judy, I couldnít get to you; maybe get
to you tomorrow.
